I Like Pie!, Take Two

The second prompt for The Challenge Your Nail Art Thanksgiving Challenge is Fall Food.  I have done a cherry pie nail art before, but I wanted to do it again.  I really like the concept and I have seen others since and I really wanted to try it again.


I really love how this came out.  Unfortunately the pictures aren't as well lit due to the short fall days.  I came home from work did the nail art and couldn't find direct sunlight to take the pictures in.


So this was done by hand with Julep's thin nail art brush for the Plié Wand.  The colors are OPI Thanks So Muchness, China Glaze Kalahari Kiss, and Desert Sun.  Then I used a Essie Matte About You over the pie crust stripes to give it a more realistic contrast from the "pie filling."



I hope you all like this!  See you tomorrow with more Thanksgiving nail art.



Tootles!

  1. I love how you gave it depth by shading it in a bit. You've done a really great job! :)

  3. Very nice! The shading is great, and I love how you only added the matte coat to the crust. I never would have thought of that!

    1. Thanks. When it was all shiny it had no depth, so that was the only way I could think to add it.

  5. So cute! The shading and adding top coat to just the crust is pure genius!
